In Set 12, we have new dual sphere lvl5 5* character Evil God Elgandi.Wow, dual sphere lvl5 Herowait wtf is that status?50HP 20ATK AGI4 RNG1 !?It just have same status point as Highland-born Hunter, which is a lv2 unit!!

What 20ATK could do?We know that he have good trait, but what 20ATK and RNG1 would just let Elgandi able to removelvl1 Great Spirit (and opponent have to put them on front line too)

with a conditional 3SP close skill that just allow him to get 30ATK and 5AGI.And his action skill need 3SP to attack 2 units, much more than normal 1SP or 2SP cost.

With so many sphere and sp invested, it seems New Evil God Elgandi can't do much for the game.What exactly does New Evil God Elgandi suppose to do?

You seem to be doing a pretty good job of making him work, despite his obvious flaws-so I'm not quite sold on this ostensible whine thread. Admittedly, he is a bit weak but let me be straight here-we didn't want to change his design, because we liked the theme and how it fit with the character. However, we've never had any kind of experience or data working with a unit that possesses such a powerful trait. So my take on it was to "let the players decide". In this case, I think we can work with usage data and win% to determine whether or not a card should be improved.

I like his theme so that I have build a file with him and gen tons of sp.However when playing several matches, it seems there are many cards that could replace Evil God Elgandi with tons of sp.It wins the game not due to the ability of Elgandi, it is sp advantages win the game.

Unit immune from soul skills or huge damage output to the field seems would be better choice when compare with Elgandi.As what you invested in Elgandi could generate more damage output by others huge unit.

I am interested to see other players comment and how would they play with Elgandi.

I find elgandi to be fine. For me it's an interesting fun card. Could get better if there will be better support for him in the future. It would be ok if he gets beaten or countered by disruption, i mean it's quite strong.

But since you talk about win% on rares, what about things like thunderbolt and bander and 4 star yuni? The gunner girls are garbage, everyone agreed upon that long time ago (more than just on a single occasion).

In other words, Rom designed this card and takes your dissing his card personally.

Try not to do this in future.

I have to laugh at "let the players decide" directly followed by, "I think we can work with usage data and win% to determine whether or not a card should be improved." Unless my comprehension is failing me, it basically says, "Let us let the players decide before ignoring them and turning to data."

I have to agree with Darkrain's opinion; Elgandi is mostly used for style points over actually being the best possible use for the SP. Elgandi is really cool, but it takes a long time for him to buff up enough to actually become a threat. Better results could probably be obtained dropping Zalzagul and Joachim and spamming grimoires.

Really funny to watch once he can get rolling though. Just need to hope the opponent isn't packing too much MaxHP hate, Defense breakers, or send to cemetery grimoires.

honest opinion, a1 version of him was a flop, the a2 version is the true winner of evil. where he has no trait but his action, if he is lvl9 3sp sends all enemies to the grave and his close only cost him -1lvl and fully healed. he is still being used today.
